uio: add the uio_aec driver

UIO driver for the Adrienne Electronics Corporation PCI time code
device.

This device differs from other UIO devices since it uses I/O ports instead of
memory mapped I/O. In order to make it possible for UIO to work with this
device a utility, uioport, can be used to read and write the ports.

uioport is designed to be a setuid program and checks the permissions of
the /dev/uio* node and if the user has write permissions it will use
iopl and out*/in* to access the device.
